Zelenskyy Offers Expertise On Keeping Waterways Open Amid Middle East Conflict by Ironfaceman(op): 11:16am On Apr 03
Ukraine has expertise concerning sea waterways, and the defence and reopening of maritime traffic,’ says president. What we know on day 1,500

Volodymyr Zelenskyy offered on Thursday to provide Ukraine’s expertise in dealing with freedom of navigation in the Black Sea to those countries considering how to keep the strait of Hormuz open amid the conflict in the Middle East. The Ukraine president, speaking in his nightly video address, said the foreign minister, Andrii Sybiha, had taken part in a virtual meeting devoted to reopening the strait of Hormuz, attended by about 40 countries. “Ukraine has relevant expertise concerning sea waterways, and the defence and reopening of maritime traffic,” he said. “If [our] partners are ready to act, we will consider how we can strengthen them, how we can apply our expertise, knowledge and technological potential.”

Russia’s army recorded no territorial gains on the frontline in Ukraine in March, for the first time in two and half years, AFP analysis of data from the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) showed. The Russian army’s advances have been slowing since late 2025 due to Kyiv’s localised breakthroughs in the south-east, and losing ground in March and February on the southern section of the frontline, between the Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk regions, the analysis showed. Across the entire frontline, Ukrainian forces managed to recapture 9 sq km in March.

I'm beginning to hate this man. He's been talking too much of recent to matters that doesn't concern him.

Thousands of Ukrainian men have been buried and many will suffer similar fate. Yet Strait of hormuz is your priority.

I think its time Ukrainians be asking Zelensky what is your plan to end Russian siege

Didn't you read the news;

1. Russian advance has slowed down drastically.

2. Russia haven't taken any territories since February to March.

3. Ukraine has been having major break throughs in taking back territories from Russia.

4. Ukraine has unblocked all the water ways block by Russia military.

He's already winning the war, Putin is losing it.

How does it not concern him? Shaheds supplied by Iran have been used by Mr Putin to murder Ukrainians in large numbers. He's also trying to keep attention on his country, as it risks being forgotten now. Plus he has genuine expertise dealing with Russia and Friends that he can trade for favours.

Lol...

He understands Iran is taking all the attention he's supposed to be getting and Israel is getting all the funds especially when bros heard ginger head is trying to secure approval for $200b from congress, so he's desperately trying to insert himself into the conflict now that gingerhead is running out of allies. If he licks ass well enough, maybe he'll get a share.

You're yet to solve your problems, it's Iran you want to chook head. Issokay.

Oga calm down. He is using strategy here. To show that Ukraine is not a beggar nation and has something to offer the world. When Iran war is over, they will cash in their cheques of goodwill. Like, I helped u out, so, help me out.

The ragtag goat herders in Afghanistan held the US for 20 years and chased them away like dogs.

That is your new reality.

“We already have agreements with Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar. We are working with Jordan. We are in communication with Kuwait, now also Iraq and Bahrain,” Zelenskyy said in a Wednesday evening video address this week.

“They are interested in our experience in countering drones and building a layered system-wide defence against modern threats,” he added.

The rate at which Ukraine can produce drones has been key to its success in holding back Russian advances and reclaiming occupied territory, commander-in-chief Oleksandr Syrskii said.

“In March, the number of combat sorties of drone interceptors and the number of targets destroyed increased by almost 55% compared to February,” Syrskii wrote on the Telegram messaging platform on Monday.

Syrskii has previously said first-person view (FPV), remote-controlled drones are now responsible for 90 percent of Russian casualties.

On Thursday, Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov said Ukraine had also “systematically increased the purchases of engineering mines and ammunition for drones”.
